AMCIt's the end of an era.
The second half of Mad Men's final season finally has a premiere date: the final seven-episode run will begin on Sunday, April 5, at 10 p.m. on AMC announced at the 2015 Winter TCA Press Tour on Saturday.
"What an incredible journey this has been," creator Matt Weiner said in a statement. "I take great pride in what the entire Mad Men team was able to create episode after episode, season after season. We sincerely thank the fans for joining us on this ride and hope it has meant as much to them as it has to us."
"Mad Men is the show that put AMC on the map. Period," network president Charlie Collier added. "It is impossible to overstate the impact it has had on AMC, and I would argue, this era of television."
Since its debut, Mad Men has won four Emmys for Outstanding Drama Series, and has been nominated seven times.
"Mad Men surpasses our highest expectations year and year and these final episodes are no exception as the fates of its characters are finally revealed," Kevin Beggs, Lionsgate's chairman, said.
